Benefits of technology
This patent is about a control system for a vehicle that helps the driver maintain a safe driving posture when making a lane change during automated driving. The system includes a mechanism that generates a planned trajectory for the vehicle, a sensor that detects the vehicle's motion in the sideways direction, and a request to the driver to grasp the steering wheel if the vehicle's motion exceeds a certain level. This way, the driver can resist the lateral G force generated during a lane change, and maintain a safe posture while driving.
Problems solved by technology
In the case that the host vehicle is an automatically driven vehicle, situations occur during which the driver is not grasping the steering wheel, and if such a large lateral G force occurs at a curve, the riding posture with which the driver is seated in the vehicle may collapse or fall into disarray.

Embodiment Construction
[0024]Preferred embodiments of a vehicle control device according to the present invention will be presented and described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[1. Configuration of Vehicle Control System 10]
[0025]The vehicle control device according to the present invention constitutes a portion of a vehicle control system that is installed in a host vehicle. A description of the vehicle control device will be presented below together with a description of the vehicle control system.
[1.1 Overall Configuration]
[0026]The vehicle control system 10 will now be described with reference to FIG. 1. The vehicle control system 10 is incorporated in a host vehicle 100, and performs a travel control for the host vehicle 100 by way of automated driving or manual driving. The term “automated driving” as used herein implies a concept that includes not only “fully automated driving” in which the travel control for the host vehicle 100 is performed entirely automatically, but...

A vehicle motion determining unit determines a value indicative of a motion of the vehicle that occurs in the vehicle transverse direction of a host vehicle, on the basis of a planned travel trajectory generated by a trajectory generating unit at a time of making a lane change. The grasping request unit outputs a grasping request to the notification control unit to request grasping of the steering wheel in the case that the value indicative of the vehicle motion is greater than or equal to a predetermined value.
Description
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application is based upon and claims the benefit of priority from Japanese Patent Application No. 2016-243929 filed on Dec. 16, 2016, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONField of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a vehicle control device which is disposed in a host vehicle that is capable of making a lane change automatically.Description of the Related Art[0003]In Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 2009-042834, a device is disclosed which, in the event that a direction indicator switch is operated by the driver, detects whether or not another vehicle exists at a destination where a lane change is to be made, and if another vehicle exists at the destination, prohibits the lane change from being made, together with issuing a notification to the driver regarding the lane change prohibition. In Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 10-250508, a device is disclo...
